Answer:

12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question,

horizontal distance from sister to rock wall = 5.5 feet

diagonal distance from sister to rock wall's peak = 13.42 feet

<h3>To find the height </h3>

As we know this figure make a right angle triangle, so we will apply pythagorus theorem

hypotenuse² = height² + base²

13.42² = height² + 5.5²

13.42² - 5.5² = height²

149.85 = height²

height  = √149.85

height  = 12.24 feet

Approximate height of her rock wall to the nearest tenth =  12 feet

Answer:X=5/6 Y=8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

-6x +5y=3

+6x

5y=6x+3 (divide each number by 5)

Y=6/5x + 3/5 (Plug that into your x equation)

12x+15 (6/5x + 3/5) =34

(Multiply 15 by the numbers in the brackets you can break it down and do 15•6 divided by 5 )

15•6=90 divided by 5=18x

15•3= 45 divided by 5=9

(Add like variables)

12x+18x=30x

30x+9=34

(Subtract 9 from itself do the same to 34)

9-9= 0

34-9=25

Divide 30 by itself to get x by itself then divide 25 by 30

25 divided by 30= 5/6

X=5/6 (plug that into the y equation)

Y=6/5•5/6+3/5

Multiply 6/5 and 5/6 straight across because this is multiplication you don't need like denominators

6/5•5/6=30/30=1

Y=1+3/5

1/1 + 3/5

Here you need to have like denominators because it is addition so just use 5

5•1=5

5/5+3/5=8/5

Y=8/5

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

He paid $1.11

Step-by-step explanation:

2.50 * 0.4 (he paid for 40% of the original price, since it was a 60% discount) = 1

1 * 0.11 (11% sales tax) = 0.11

1 + 0.11 = 1.11
